Integration with server management software

For integration with server management software such as ServerView Operations Manager and performance monitoring software such as openSM2 only a subset of StorMan functions is available. This subset is delivered with the name of StorManMonitor and consists of the functions for information and monitoring.

StorManMonitor does not include active management functions and does not include the WebUI. As the interfaces of StorManMonitor functions are identical to the StorMan interfaces they are described as StorMan interfaces further on.

Description of the StorMan tasks:

• For configuration and discovery of storage resources to be managed by StorMan refer to chapter “Setting up StorMan configurations”.

Description of the StorMan interfaces (subset for StorManMonitor):

• The following subset of CLI commands is available:

  • The CLI commands storcfg host and storcfg provider can be used for configuration.

  • The CLI command storcfg system -show can be used for gathering detailed configuration and status information of the storage systems.

  • The CLI command storstat that provides statistical information and metrics can be used for monitoring the performance of the storage systems.

  • Additionally the CLI commands stormandb, storcheck, storparam, storinfo can be used.
